Get a sub amp for your sub. Would you try and use the 6" speakers as subs? No. So don't use the miniscule amp that's for them on a sub.


I have a 4 chanel amp. 2 chanels are hooked to my door speakers with the high pass filter on. The other two chanels are brigded to my 10" sub. I am using the low pass filter on my sub.
Thanks. That makes sense to me. What wattage amp do you recommend for the sub I have linked to in OP?
